Close ups
This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. June was the gracious hostess.
I'm not at all used to these open acrylics...they fall between regular fast drying acrylics (which I'm used to) and oils (which I really like) in how they handle for me. Once I got familiar with them, they would be a joy to use.
C&C welcome. Thanks for looking and commenting.

Luke 12:6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And not one of them is forgotten before God.
He's SO adorable, Dean. I love the way you paint animals..Excellent work!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Hilda...I must admit..painting animals is my first love!
DeleteWhat a cutie, Dean. That eye is so devilish!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kathryn...The eye is a little more devilish than the reference photo...but it reminded me so much of a beautiful dog I had a few years ago, I left it.
DeleteGood Morning Dean!... You've caught that subtle eye check in... which dogs use to stay connected... but remain "doin their own thing." Know the moment well!
ReplyDeleteGreat colour and texture as usual... and a nice use of that cropped head composition! Another gem!
Good Painting!
Warmest regards,
Bruce
Hi Bruce...You said: "that subtle eye check in... which dogs use to stay connected... but remain "doin their own thing."
DeleteThat made me smile! You're absolutely right!
Thanks for stopping by!
Oh I have seen this look in my own dogs before, Dean. It is a well done painting and I have a feeling this little guy would jump right up if you even began to speak to him.
ReplyDeleteLooks as if he'd jump up ready to go if you just looked at him, much less speak to him! Good to "see" you, Sherry!
Deleteawwww totally adorable. You know what you are doing!
ReplyDeleteOh, I remember this look from my little Bonny I used to own in Australia. Beautiful work Dean.
ReplyDeleteI was going to join you guys but ended up sick and am on the recovery now.
I know I had left a comment before but have had computer problems so that must be why I di not see it. Glad I checked back to see what you have been up to Dean.
ReplyDeleteI laughed when I saw the EYE, So real and my dog has the same expression. Lovely painting Dean. Will look forward to seeing what else you do with the open acrylics
